Reports provide a detailed overview of the composition of your credits. You can choose between CSV, JSON or PDF formats and filter by artist, track, release or month, even over several months.

The most detailed form of the reports is the royalty report. Here you will find a detailed list of all information about the stream or download.

These include:

  • saleDate: Date of billing of the stream/download from the store

  • creditDate: Date of credit to your recordJet account

  • trackTitle: Name of the track

  • trackArtist: Name of the artist(s) of the track

  • releaseTitle: Name of the single, EP or album

  • releaseArtist: Name of the artist(s) of the single, EP or album

  • ean: Identifier of the release (GTIN)

  • isrc: Identifier of the track

  • type: Type of payment (stream or download)

The "type" shows whether it is a stream or a download. Streams that are not paid out by Spotify (stream-reduced rate) are also displayed here.

  • quantity: Number of streams/downloads

Please note: Discovery Mode streams are listed twice. Firstly, the regular revenue for a stream and then, as an extra entry, the fees of 30% that Spotify retains for the Discovery Mode streams.

  • store: Platform of the stream/download (e.g. Spotify, Apple)

  • channel: Source of income (e.g. type of subscription, use in Instagram-stickers or reels)

The "channel" shows what the revenue was generated from. For example, what type of subscription the listeners have (premium, family, advertising, trial, etc.) or, for example, in the case of Instagram, whether the music was used in stickers or reels. Radio/TV for Neighbouring Rights revenues, CD for physical sales and Spotify Discovery Mode are also shown here.

In addition, tracks are marked here that Spotify does not pay out because they are either functional content that is shorter than 2 minutes ("Sub Two Minute Track") or no 1000 streams have been achieved in the last 12 months ("Unqualified Track").

  • country: Country of the stream/download

Revenues may differ depending on the country in which the stream was made, for example because subscription fees vary from country to country.

  • vatInPercent: Amount of VAT

  • royaltyGrossInEur: Gross revenue

  • royaltyNetInEur: Net revenue

If you have indicated in the recordJet account that you are not liable for VAT, the "vatInPercent" column will show 0%. The gross revenue is then equal to the net revenue. If you have specified in the recordJet account that you are liable for VAT, the respective percentage (depending on the country, for example) is shown in the "vatInPercent" column. This percentage is included in the gross revenue, but not in the net revenue.
